Cannot switch pages in search results

Hi,

which permalinks structure are you using please? Does the problem occur if you switch to a different permalinks structure? If you are using a custom permalinks structure, it might help if you edit the following code in “search.php”:

echo paginate_links( array(
	'base' => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
	'format' => '?paged=%#%',
	'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
  'prev_text' => __( '← Previous', 'happenstance' ),
	'next_text' => __( 'Next →', 'happenstance' ),
	'total' => $wp_query->max_num_pages,
  'add_args' => false
) );

in this way:

echo paginate_links( array(
	'format' => '?paged=%#%',
	'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
  'prev_text' => __( '← Previous', 'happenstance' ),
	'next_text' => __( 'Next →', 'happenstance' ),
	'total' => $wp_query->max_num_pages,
  'add_args' => false
) );

I am going to remove the “base” argument in a future update as it is no longer necessary in the latest WordPress version, but it might break the URL addresses of search results with some permalinks structures.
